【How to Choose Tender Beef?】
Beef is one of the most popular types of meat, with high protein content, low fat content, and delicious taste, earning it the nickname "the pride of meat".
The color of old beef is dark red, and the texture is coarse; while tender beef is light red in color, with a firm and fine texture, and rich elasticity.
Beef has a coarse fiber structure and more connective tissue, so it should be cut against the grain to cut the long fibers. Cutting along the fiber structure will not only make it difficult for the meat to absorb flavors, but it will also be tough to chew.
